Perfect for San Sebastian in one day - The excursion was great. Elba was a great guide at all times. We toured the essentials of San Sebastián and Getaria. I recommend it.

One of our most memorable experiences - This was a wonderful and memorable experience. We took a trip from Bilbao to San Sebastián with our host Jose (he is most probably the best guide in Spain). We were particularly interested in the history of the place and he was so knowledgeable, he explained everything and he took us to excellent places to have wine and pintxos. The conversations with him were so fun!!!
Absolutely recommended.

Great personal tour of San Sebastián - Jose is not only a local guide but also a history teacher and was really engaging as he gave us a tour of the San Sebastián area. Great stories, background of the culture and good perspectives on what we were experiencing during the day. Highly recommend!

Vamos a San Sebastian - Pilar picked us up at our hotel and was our guide for the drive to San Sebastian and Getaria. Even thought the weather was a bit gloomy, she brightened up our tour with interesting facts and conversation. We had a delicious pintxos lunch during the tour.

Wonderful & Informative Day in Basque Country - Our group is split … one of us loved the majestic landscape of the Coast Tour; one of us especially enjoyed walking through town; and one appreciated our guide’s knowledge of the area and his sincere efforts to share that with us.

Great tour! - This day tour allowed us to see the most of San Sebastian and Basque Coast in one day. There were a lot of incredible sights.
We had only one day to visit the Basque Country and we were really satisfied with this tour. Our tour guide Josu really helped us make the most of it.
The food was really good with lot of pintxos options to choose and different wines to pair with the food.
I would highly recommend txakoli local wine. It was
greatt day with a great guide.

Lovely daytrip with Josu - The trip was absolutely wonderful. The driver-guide Josu´s talk was fun, informative about places and the life in San Sebastian. I enjoyed the best pintxo for lunch recommended by him.
On the way to Bilbao, we stopped in Getaria. Lovely fishermen village.
One of the best coach trips I have ever done.

Tour guide was very nice! - We booked our tour in Spanish by accident but the guide did a good job translating for us. It was a small group and slow pace which allowed us to soak in the experience. It was a little pricey and why I rated it very good instead of excellent. Everyone had a great time.
